I was driving my car on the freeway and saw a small group of cars stopped in the road. i went to put on my brakes and nothing happened so i kept trying to brake pushing all the way down to the floor. i wedged myself between the suv in front of me and the truck next to me. also got rear ended by another vehicle. air bags deplloyed and i received a few scratches bruises and muscle strain. i went to look up recalls about a month ago for my vehicle. apparently my vin is an invalid number. i received a ticket for failure to maintain my speed.
While going on up and down steep hills in a city all of a sudden the engine stalls and the breaks stop working. this happened to me several times and to my luck as there was no traffic i got escaped without any accidents. both the times i stopped the vehicle by shifting it to the parking mode. some times the steering also automatically shifts to manual mode and the steering becomes tight. so the issues are with both the brakes and steering and this could be a computer/communication glitch which is not communicating with the brakes properly. when i stop the vehicle and restarts after sometime again brakes works normally and everything works fine. but after some days this issue repeats. right now i am taking the vehicle to the nearby dealer to get more information on the vehicle condition. once i get a clear explanation of the vehicle condition i will add more information to this complaint. right now the mileage on the vehicle is 105000. i think there are some recalls on this vehicle and i am not sure if they have recall on this particular case.
